The rumour mill for the next generation of video game consoles has been churning out some juicy stuff these past few months. While Nintendo has laid most of its cards out on the table, Microsoft and Sony have remained tight-lipped, probably because their consoles are still seeing increased sales. So, we have to rely on rumours, and those rumours have one thing in common: Microsoft and Sony want to eliminate the used games market.

Uhhhh...what does she have to do with anything? I said the NEXT Twilight or Harry Potter. Those two series are old now, now its Hunger games and soon there will be a new "hip" book everyone will want to read. What happens if that book is a Kindle exclusive? Bye bye regular books as the masses will buy the kindle to read the hip book and since they already have it, why not just buy books for it instead?

This is why Amazon is being VERY smart in buying up exclusives left and right, because they know that all it takes is ONE, just one, to become the hip new watercooler book and the BAM, they got the market by the throat.

I wish it weren't so friend, but we've seen superior formats die because something else was more convenient, the masses only care about easy and being hip.
